Have you tried to re-root the phone?

If you rooted using unrevoked, just hold vol down and power when the device is off, and choose recovery from the menu, rom manager uses a fake flash method and isnt needed if you have a custom recovery installed

well thats the problem i cant go to recovery via hboot only via rom manager
i used this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748618
i rooted the phone somthing like 10 times !
i think its a problem with the slcd screen root....
anyone encounter this problem ????
btw i have hboot 0.83.0001
help!!!!
plz.

i noticed you quoted "Clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.1".
is this correct?
this seems like an old version - have you tried 2.5.0.7? i have used this with no problems.

yea its correct thats what i got from the guide for the slcd rood on the unrevoked way
do i need to root it again with an newer version of the custom img on the unrevoked
or just try to flash a zip file from the recovery ?
btw where can i get it ? can u post a link plz ?
thnx

Download amon-ra recovery, can be found in the android development section. Then boot up your phone and load unrevoked. Within unrevoked select custom recovery and select amon ra. Problems solved
/edit link to amon ra http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9207011&postcount=1

Works! thnx man
with amon-ra
i dident try the clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 because i dident find an active link to download from....
the only thing that sucks is that i cant use the Vol +/- to switch options only the trackball.
but thats another problem....

2.5.1.8 is actually the latest ClockworkMod Recovery. Here is the latest update, I believe it was updated early last month. I know you now have Amon-RA, but I'll put it here for anyone else who may happen to stumble across this thread looking for help.

[Q]Bricked Desire...big time

Hello, I tried today to s-off my desire but failed so i gave up but ended up with the usb-brick issue, no problems here, lots of tutorials, but I accidentally updated my phone OTA from HTC and now I don't have amon-ra recovery anymore, only the android recovery which needs signed packages. I do have the SU app installed, so I guess my phone is still rooted, but I am unable to install a recovery in order to unbrick my phone. The only thing that is working is "fastboot", but can't flash a new rom, can't flash a new recovery.
Any ideas? I really don't want to sent my phone to a service...
LE: If I try to install any app from any source, including Market, my phone restarts, fast restarts actually...

tried unrevoked? this installs clockwork recovery mod.
or android flasher -attched

doesnt your phone needs to be ON with unrevoked? from there you must plug it in whith unrevoked opened on your PC.
But you can always try. I highly doubt your phone is unfixable, itll be allright.

Tried to re-root my phone but because my usb connection doesn't work anymore, the unrevoked program doesn't "see" my phone. The only thing that i need, in my opinion is an root explorer packed as a signed zip that the original android recovery can flash and i may be able to regain usb functionality.

you should try a differnt PC and do the process. I had a similar issue sometime back and when I changed the PC i was working on it worked.

That doesn't make much sense because the problem is in my phone, not in my computer...
Latest update: I prepared my phone for service, managed to flash a shipped rom without root, so there is no sign on it that I rooted it or flashed another custom rom/recovery. Still can't access the phone via usb so unrevoked still not a solution. Any new ideas before I say bye-bye to my Desire ?

You should try this :
- usb debugging mode ON
- install VWM ( virtual ware machine ) and boot with the .img of the hboot needed at http://alpharev.nl
- the device should be plugged and the aplharev hboot pushed with the last clockworkworld recovery
if not working, unfortunately not so many solutions but you still can try to unbrick the usb and then you will "unrevoked" easily your desire !
Take a look on alpharev developers chat for bricked phones
Hope it helps
My last piece of work

Nothing posted on xda or other android forums worked so today I handed my Desire to my carrier because I still have warranty . I hope they don't find any of my modifications , I did un-rooted it so it should be stock enough for them

Something I do not understand :
Last time I USB bricked my phone, I went to hboot, then fastboot, and entered the fastboot commande :
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
as stated in many tuto.
This re-enables the USB, and then, you may again flash any recovery via unrevoked.

Actually that command re-enables the micro-sd controller, not the usb.

[Q] Failed to unroot, un S-off my desire

Hi guys, i have decided to get my desire back to stock and i have the asian RUU that i download from xda.
I am rooted with s-off and amonra recovery. Im on the Stock rooted ROM w/ A2SD.
1) Went to fastboot and into fastboot_USB mode and then ran RUU from PC
2) at arnd 59% it gave me an error error 110: File Open Error (is this a RUU corrupted of what?)
3) Then it went into a half-bricked mode where theres 4 exclaimation marks on the 4 corners
lucky i managed to recover into last working state again. (adb coundnt detect my phone; it works with my S2)
I went on to format phone from Settings, but my apps, etc are still there.
Can anyone tell me what to do and where to start?

Desire Z/G2: Boot into Fastboot with adb/debug deactivated | Dead Screen | Clockwork

Hello devs,
my HTC Desire Z broke over night.
The phone still works, boots and runs as expected, but the Screen is dead, although the Touchscreen is still working (PatternUnlock working and so on).
I want to send it in for warranty repair, but I still have flashed Clockwork Recovery with S-OFFand Cyanogen 9 RC1 and root.
That's the reason why I want to flash the original image PC10IMG via fastboot.
How can I access the bootloader and boot into fastboot?
I tried:
Volume Down and waiting long enough (~45s) and then pressed Power to access Fastboot, but it doesn't work.
(I think the clockwork menu is presented instead of the android bootloader menu, which I don't know by minds).
Debug mode is off on the phone, so "adb reboot fastboot" does not work
Can someone with a Desire Z and Clockwork Recovery flashed give an step-by-step instruction how to boot into fastboot if your screen is dead?
Thank you in advance.

That's what I tried already, but sadly it doesn't work due to Clockwork Recovery I think.
My device reboots when I press power after one minute, which makes sense if this screenshot represents my menu.

In the ClockworkMod in this screenshot is fastboot not listed and I couldn't find a screenshot of the advanced menu nor the complete menu structure where fastboot was listed.
I'm using the most recent version of Clockwork Rom Manager and Recovery Image
Should be 5.0.2.7 I think.

You don't need to use recovery at all with my guide.
You can go straight to fastboot mode, from powered down, by holding the Trackpad while powering on, then you can use your computer to talk to it and send a rom to flash.

Thank you very much I didn't knew the Trackpad shortcut and didn't find / oversee it in your guide.
That was the one I needed.
You made my day!
:fingers-crossed:

Yeah I don't think I mentioned it in my guide, as the guide is also written for Ace/Glacier, which don't have trackpads.
I'm glad you managed to get it sorted

Data recovery attempt off of 5 year old phone

Hello
So here is the situation. A friend of mine recently dug up his 5 year old HTC One M8 and he would like to access the data saved on that device.
However, when powering on, the device quickly boots into fastboot. Upon choosing the "hboot" option, the phone quickly boots into yet another instance of fastboot, this time however the option to boot into recovery has appeared. Unfortunately however, when choosing to boot into recovery, the phone just simply returns to fastboot.
What is curious about this is that he never really modified the phone at all or the recovery (stock recovery should be installed).
Therefore the bootloader is locked . Interestingly, fastboot displays the following information when booting:
Code:
*** Software status: Modified ***
** LOCKED ***
** Security Warning ***
M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT- 3.19.0.0000
RADIO-1.29.214500021.12G

I am mostly at a loss here.. Do you people maybe have an idea on how to fix this issue?
Supposedly the phone hasn't been touched for 5 years now and even before that long hiatus, essential files haven't been touched. The phone is locked and has never been rooted.. Apart from it sitting in a drawer for 5 years, there should be nothing unusual about it.
Could the flash memory have degraded over that long time? If so, that would be an absolute first for me.
Do you guys have any solutions on how to access the file system somehow?
Some pictures of the boot process:
Fastboot shortly after powering on the device:
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After choosing "HBOOT" from the previous screen, this comes up, adding the option to boot into recovery (which does not work):
Curious: After pressing the power button to turn on the device, this text appears for a split second:

"Software Modified" on a device that has never been rooted/modified typically means the OS has been corrupted. This is consistent with the fact that the phone will not boot to OS. We've seen this on both devices that are used on a regular basis, as well as some sitting idle for a long time. The storage that holds the OS is not completely foolproof.
Unfortunately, recovering data from such a device (can't boot to OS, never modified - no custom recovery) is unlikely, and probably impossible. Methods to restore the OS will wipe the data on the phone. And the data is not accessible without a working OS.
Also, stock recovery isn't terribly useful. So the absence of stock recovery means very little either way.
